ESP32

Description

For some use cases it might be useful to make power-hungry ESP32 devices reduce their energy budget by automatically turning off Wi-Fi as battery level falls below a certain (configurable?) value v.

• Priority would then be given to "normal" Meshtastic connectivity, i.e. LoRa.
• This way, battery runtime could be almost doubled for the balance of the battery capacity.
• Wi-Fi could be turned back on when battery level climbs back to v + margin.

E.g.: turn off below 20%, turn back on at 20% + 10% margin= 30% battery level
